Abstract

An analysis of multicolour Geneva photometry and echelle spectroscopy showed that V945 Cen is a close double-lined B7+B8.5 spectroscopic binary with a 0.6496-d orbital period. The spectrum also contains a third system of spectral lines, indicative of a third star in the system or some circumbinary matter.
